Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced a 40% budget cut to her department to "root out deep state actors." She has stripped security clearances from 37 officials accused of politicizing intelligence, specifically regarding the 2016 Russia collusion narrative.

Special Counsel John Durham released a 300-page report concluding that the FBI lacked sufficient evidence to launch the "Crossfire Hurricane" investigation into Donald Trump's 2016 campaign. The report highlights significant failures in the FISA warrant process and a reliance on uncorroborated intelligence, including the Clinton-funded Steele Dossier. Media outlets like NBC and MSNBC are criticized for downplaying the findings as a "nothing burger" despite the report's devastating critique of FBI bias.

The trial of Igor Danchenko, a primary source for the Steele Dossier, revealed that key information regarding Donald Trump was fabricated by Clinton associate Charles Dolan. Dolan admitted under oath that he invented a "Republican source" and instead pulled information from cable news. This testimony, part of Special Counsel John Durham's investigation, further discredits the dossier used by the FBI to justify surveillance of the Trump campaign.

Recently declassified handwritten notes from former CIA Director John Brennan reveal that he briefed President Obama in July 2016 on a plan by Hillary Clinton to "vilify" Donald Trump by linking him to Russia. The notes suggest the plan was a distraction from Clinton's email server scandal. The hosts question why mainstream media outlets and Fox News have largely ignored this documented evidence of a political plot.

House Manager Hakeem Jeffries argues that the Steele Dossier was not foreign interference because it was "purchased" opposition research. Chief Justice John Roberts declines to exercise tie-breaking authority in the Senate, citing the 150-year-old precedent from the Andrew Johnson trial. The hosts analyze the 50-50 failure rule for Senate motions.

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1205-death-bus/chapter/steele-dossier-gorilla-channel-hoax.md

The hosts discuss the origins of the Steele Dossier, suggesting it was reverse-engineered specifically to justify FISA warrants rather than being the genesis of the investigation. They also recall the "Gorilla Channel" hoax, where a satirical story about Trump watching a fake gorilla television channel was widely believed by critics.

Representative Devin Nunes delivers a scathing summary of the Democratic efforts to impeach Donald Trump, linking the current Ukraine investigation to the previous Russia collusion narrative. He cites the Steele Dossier and the role of the anonymous whistleblower as evidence of a coordinated "plan B" by intelligence officials and media hacks.

### Steele Dossier Corroboration, Media Prostitutes and Intelligence Failures

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1199-slackified/chapter/steele-dossier-corroboration-media-prostitutes-and-intelligence-failures.md

A supercut of media figures and politicians shows them repeatedly claiming the Steele dossier had been corroborated by the intelligence community. The Horowitz report later proved these claims were false, as the FBI failed to verify the dossier's primary sub-sources. The hosts label the media figures who pushed these narratives as "news prostitutes."

### Steele Dossier Sub-Source, FBI Misleading the Court

- **Episode:** [1198: Self Certified](https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1198-self-certified.md)
- **Published:** 2019-12-15

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1198-self-certified/chapter/steele-dossier-sub-source-fbi-misleading-the-court.md

The primary sub-source for the Steele dossier told the FBI in January 2017 that Christopher Steele's reports were based on "rumor and speculation" heard at a bar, specifically disavowing the "pee tape" allegations. Despite this, the FBI informed the FISA court that the source was "truthful and cooperative" to secure two additional warrants against Carter Page. The hosts call for the abolition of the FISA court system due to these systemic deceptions.

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/1190-olive-theory/chapter/adam-schiff-devin-nunes-and-impeachment-hearing-production.md

The production quality of the House impeachment hearings is critiqued, noting Adam Schiff's oversized chair and the lack of "fireworks" in the testimony. Representative Devin Nunes delivered an opening statement characterizing the inquiry as a "low-rent sequel" to the Mueller investigation and a media smear campaign. The proceedings were relegated to C-SPAN 3, which is interpreted as a sign of the event's failure to capture public interest.

New reports allege that Nellie Ohr, a former contractor for Fusion GPS, was in constant communication with her husband, Bruce Ohr, and other Justice Department officials regarding the Steele Dossier. The communications reportedly included sending news reports in Russian to smear Donald Trump during the 2016 campaign. Critics argue that Nellie Ohr may have been one of the most significant hires in the effort to delegitimize the Trump presidency.

Robert Mueller claimed to be unfamiliar with Fusion GPS, the firm that produced the Steele dossier, which critics cited as evidence of his lack of involvement in the investigation's details. Representative Will Hurd questioned Mueller on debunked reports regarding Michael Cohen visiting Prague and a Trump Tower server communicating with Russia's Alpha Bank. Mueller stated he did not believe the server story was true, though it had been widely reported by outlets like Slate.

The Earl of Tennessee organized a successful No Agenda meetup in Knoxville, collecting funds to support the show's production. Separately, the "Conspiracy Land" podcast by Michael Isikoff is criticized as a promotional tool for his book and a continuation of his work on the Steele dossier. The hosts deconstruct the transition of traditional journalists into the podcasting space as a means of maintaining relevance after leaving major news organizations.
